This dip is great for anyone! I’m always trying to please both the adults in the house, and the kids, because I’m not cooking twice. This fits the bill. It’s also full of protein, fiber, iron, magnesium, vitamin C, B vitamins, phytonutrients and antioxidants.
For those of you who may have a difficult time getting your kids to eat spinach, this is a great way to sneak it in.
The cashews need to be soaked for at least 6 hours to promote better digestion, and make the dip creamier, but after that, the prep time is about 10 minutes. Not bad!
